You can connect directly to ISC4.GDB (see Helen's reply) but in
general it's safer not to do that unless it's really necessary and you
know what you are doing. In IBO, you can use TIB_Connection.AlterUser
to manage users. Set Username + Password of the TIB_Connection to
SYSDBA and his/her password, and call like this:

MyConnection.AlterUser( uaAddUser, 'danny', 'sekrit',
'', 'Danny', 'E.', 'Williams' ) ;

See the IBO help for more explanation.
